this is sad...

Since the Pledge of Allegiance
And
The Lord's Prayer
Are not allowed in most
Public schools anymore
Because the word 'God' is mentioned...
A kid in Arizona wrote the attached

NEW School prayer :
Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.

If Scripture now the class recites,
It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.

Our hair can be purple, orange or green,
That's no offense; it's a freedom scene.
The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.

For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all.
In silence alone we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the state.

We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks..
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.
We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,
And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.
It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,
We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong.

We can get our condoms and birth controls,

Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.

But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,

No word of God must reach this crowd.

It's scary here I must confess,
When chaos reigns the school's a mess.
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; My soul please take!
Amen

It makes me sad. And angry. And worried. Without the foundational principles of the Bible, I&#039;m afraid that no nation can long be considered great. It may be very rich and powerful, for a while. But a government &quot;of the people by the people&quot; can be no better than the character of the citizens. God help us. This nation has lost the common decency to call good &quot;good&quot; and bad &quot;bad.&quot; Lost the Christian virtues of brotherly love and generousity. It&#039;s a free-for-all, orgy of greed led by Wall Street and Madison Avenue. And decadence and corrupt living (sex and drugs) hiding behind the protected &quot;rights&quot; of libery, freedom, and personal choice.

Indeed SO SAD!!

Wake up America! God, please wake people up to your unchangable truth!

I agree. It&#039;s so true - and terribly sad. It&#039;s a dark moment in the history of our nation. I&#039;m not a &quot;pollyanna&quot; and the sky&#039;s not falling - but I do believe we may live in the last days - I&#039;m just waiting for the sky to open up!!!

I have read a diffferent version of this before,it makes me so sad and angry. This country was built on God and the Ten Commandement, I just don&#039;t unerstand what our country is about anymore. I stand by my convictions, and they can lock me up and throw away the key! God Bless this kid and all the othes in our schools. Thank you for sharing. God Bless

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...

Today is my 25th birthday, to my somewhat lack of surprise I can see already no one really seems to care. I've always been the kinda person to make sure that everyone I Care about feels appreciated and knew somebody had their back. I can count 4 times this year when I Went out of my way to make sure a "friend" felt good on their birthday, especially if they got left hanging. Its early in the...
